Default Next iron butt

Not sure of the date yet, but probably sometime in the middle to end of July.

Springfield, MO up through Kansas and Colorado on I-70 to Las Vegas. 1,561 miles. Leave at midnight and hopefully get there by midnight. If we aren't going to make it, we'll stop and have some random person sign our arrival papers somewhere over 1000 miles so we can still get that part done, then make it the rest of the way by the 36 hour mark.

Spend a day or maybe 2 in Vegas. Hang out. Meet Tsunami and Dlit.

Head back and stop around Amarillo, TX at 850 miles for the day. Anyone live around there we could crash at for the night?

Leave there and run the last 600 miles back home.

I'm addicted. This would hit 8 states I've never been to on a bike.

Well, first of all, I-70 doesn't go to Las Vegas.

I-70 to I-15 south will get you to Vegas.

My mind is like a roadmap! haha!

That was my first thought too.

And I-70 thru Kansas!

Yeah I know this, but 70 west from here then figure it out.

Same with 40 and 44.
